Bulugh al-Maram

Bulūgh al-Marām contains a total of 1358 hadiths. At the end of each hadith narrated in Bulūgh al-Marām, al-Ḥāfiẓ ibn Ḥajar mentions who collected that hadith originally. Bulūgh al-Marām includes hadith drawn from numerous primary sources such as Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, Sahih Muslim, Sunan Abu Dawud, Jāmiʿ at-Tirmidhī, Sunan al-Nasāʾī, Sunan ibn Mājah, Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal and more. It holds the unique distinction that all the hadith compiled in the book have been the foundation for Shāfiʿī Islamic Jurisprudence rulings. In addition to mentioning the origins of each of the hadith in Bulūgh al-Marām, Ibn Ḥajar also included a comparison between the versions of a hadith that came from different sources. Because of its unique qualities, it still remains a widely used collection of hadith regardless of the school of thought. ==Contents==
